My company have a so called associate, he wanted to join venture with my company to do an event. I have no idea how my boss knew him, maybe some one introduce him to my boss. He's an Architect. At first he discuss with my boss how's the things goes. First time went he came to my office talks rubbish a lot. He always pride himself he's the Country Manager for Shell, then Regional Manager for what-what company, WTF. I don't know whether he's bullshit or what. First day he came to my office, talk rubbish then only start talking about the event details.
He sit in my office almost 1 day, then he wrote a sample of the tender, so he asked me to type as he wrote. Then then next day he came to my office again, this time he comment on the tender, one dot or coma missing he complaint like hell, @$$#o|e. Because of him, we didn't manage to do our thing, all is on hold. On last Friday, he drag my time, if not I already go back home watch the the opening of Olympic. On Saturday, he use my time until 6pm. He think we're so free. Every time there's a mistake in the tender, he'll talk rubbish, and pride himself how he settle the problems.
When he's in my office, he complaint non-stop. He always said how good he work's with the European people, how gentleman they are, WTF. I still remember he requested a sample from us so we done one for him, a sticker with foam board and frame. We have our ways to make it done, as long as it nice. When he saw the sample, he start complaint saying that cannot do like this, not nice, bloody hell, we done so many of that printing none of the customer complaint only him. Then continue back to the discussion and tender.
He compliant so many things about the pricing and asked me to call my boss. I called him many times until Saturday, my boss fed up already. Everything need so details, until myself also fed up with him. Always said you cannot write like this, you must write like this, bla-bla. During my conversation with my boss, he fed up already and told me he quits. We'll charge for the time he used. Then I told that man, he's like so frastrated and said, we sent the tender already, now you saying wanted to quit? CAnnot like this, that's why I'm afraid some thing like this will happened. If he;s so afraid, at first why he want to join venture with us?
Every one in my company can't stand with him, my boss suspected him he's a con-man, so my boss didn't fully trust him. Complaint and talk rubbish. My bottle water put next to the fax machine he also complain, not just that, he make the monitor dirty, so I wipe, he also complaint. He's really an @$$#o|e.
